Flashing M

[justme00]

For the ladies using the clear blue fertility monitor - When did your 'M' start flashing? I have to be honest I haven't been turning my monitor on every day since I went back to "low" readings but I turned it on yesterday CD25 and the 'M' was already flashing. I thought it only flashed when you were close to your period? Is it weighted by your DPO? Just curious if anyone knew the answer to this one. Thanks!

I think it probably is done by DPO, i wouldnt worry too much if its flashing, mine started flashing 3 days before AF actually showed up.

Hmm. I'm 14DPO right now. Do I just have an oddly long Luteal phase?

It's normal. Mine started flashing about 2 days before AF showed. It will keep flashing until you re-set it on the first day of your AF, so you don't need to do anything until then. It most likely starts flashing at different times with different people. I wouldn't worry about not having looked at the monitor since you stopped testing. I didn't either as I couldn't see the point so probably missed the actual day it started flashing.

Could be you have a longer luteal phase, but some people just do don't they. It's worth knowing in any case. My monitor indicated that I had a 14 day LP, but FF showed it as 15 days.
